With Earth Day coming up I have seen lots of places to recycle almost everything! It's good for the environment, your house (less clutter), and sometimes your wallet.
Make Up Items
-EcoTools - Send off your old makeup brushes, sponges, and bath and body care products to EcoTools for an alternative EcoTool product (free item coupon) and a sample pack. Go here for more information!
Thanks My Dallas Mommy!
-Origins- Take your empty cosmetic tubes, bottles, or jars to Origins store or counter April 22 for a free full size cleanser...choose from Checks and Balances or Perfect World. This has been posted on their facebook page. Thanks Drugstore Divas!
Electronics
-Target- Trade in used electronics and DVDs for a Target Gift Card! Love this!!
-Swagbucks- Recycle old cell phones for swagbucks! Not a member? Join here!
Shoes
Nike- Drop off shoes at Nike to have every part used to make athletic surfaces. I think I like this on the best! They take any brand shoes!
List of other places to send shoes for charity and to be reused or recycled.
Plastic Bags
Reuse- If you have not gotten a reusable bag yet or forgot yours, be sure to reuse plastic bags in creative or more ordinary ways or
Recycle- Target has set out recycle bins for plastic bags in or near their stores.
Paper
Reuse - I use the backside of office paper or flyers I am no longer using to print out coupons. I also give them to my kids to doodle on or cut them up and use them on scrap paper to jot down notes.
Recycle- Paper Retriever is a great way to recycle your office papers, magazines, and newspapers. Plus, your schools or community organizations will get money for the items being recycled.
Thanks My Chicago Mommy!
Sports Equipment
Donate to a local school! Teachers are always in search of play equipment especially this late in the year :)
Various Items
Recycle - Terracycle is a great way for you to donate used drink pouches, oral care, home storage, lunch kits, and beauty items. Your organization receives money for the items donated. The recycled items are then turned into products that are sold, such as tote bags.
Thanks My Chicago Mommy!
